...And I've seen what it's like to have good days,
really ******* good days.
Days when things go horribly wrong and surprisingly right but you see how much your mother has sacrificed for you
and how the sky looks so ordinary but it will probably never look the exact same way as it does right now
and  the sun shines on your best friend in a way that makes you feel happy to be alive.
I am happy to be alive.
I don't know what that means in terms of progress,
But I know it's October again,
and this Thanksgiving I am able to say the words that I couldn't say last year:
**I am happy to be alive.
"Day by day, nothing seems to change, but pretty soon...everything's different."
I think the U.S. celebrates Thanksgiving on a different date, but for everyone celebrating today... Happy Thanksgiving.
For reading my writing, for commenting and reposting and following me... For sharing your own work, for showing me that there are people out there who know exactly how you feel...
For that, I am thankful for all of you.
